Cellular, Molecular, Physiological, and Behavioral Aspects of Traumatic Brain Injury
About this book
Traumatic brain injury has complex etiology and may arise as a consequence of physical abuse, violence, war, vehicle collisions, working in the construction industry, and sports. Cellular, Molecular, Physiological, and Behavioral Aspects of Traumatic Brain Injury will improve readers' understanding of the detailed processes arising from traumatic brain injury. Featuring chapters on neuroinflammation, metabolism, and psychology, this volume discusses the impact of these injuries on neurological and body systems to better understand underlying pathways. This book will be relevant for neuroscientists, neurologists, clinicians, and anyone working to better understand traumatic brain injury.
- Summarizes the neuroscience of traumatic brain injury, including cellular and molecular biology
- Contains chapter abstracts, key facts, dictionary, and summary points to aid in understanding
- Features chapters on signaling and hormonal events
- Includes plasticity and gene expression
- Examines health and stress behaviors after traumatic brain injury
